GDT Doubleheader Day

[Boxcar]

Merryweather time

[glory]

The Legend finally about to make an appearance.

[Corporal Valdal]

Man, I was somewhat optimistic about Hernandez with his statcast numbers since the 2nd half of last year + his walk rate, but if he's not walking at all anymore, it's going to be hard for him to be an above average hitter.

 

He rarely walked. He is a very streaky player. I think he will be a DH going foward, reminds me of EE. Let him focus on hitting and less on fielding and he should be fine

[Jonn]

Sounds about right. Or he'll let some of his players get thrown out first, then allow the umpire to yell at him shortly after.

 

That’s one of the funniest ejections in recent memory in the Shormaker start. Looks like he actually got bullied by the umpires. Funny but sad at the same time.

[Boxcar]

That’s actually my biggest issue with Montoyo. Not the bunts, lineups, or BP decisions.

He’s soft as cashmere. I haven’t seen him fight or argue about any s***** ump calls. He’ll just nod and go back to the dugout with his head down, like wtf man.

 

Yeah, Gibby would come out and tell an ump to go f*** himself at a moment's notice. Charles is a pussy. He's a lot like John Farrell, actually, except somehow worse.

[Corporal Valdal]

So who are the available MLB managers out there?

[Slade]

The Magic man is warming. Now you see him, now you don't.

[Jonn]

Blue Jays media says Merryweather throws high 90’s and has touched 100. So I’m expecting him to come in and throw 91-93.

Last time I saw him in the minors, he was sitting 95-96 and T97 with a decent curveball. Has slider and change too.

[Boxcar]

I'm actually not sure this is really happening

[Boxcar]

So who are the available MLB managers out there?

 

Literally any coach in the league who isn't already a manager

[Jays24]

I will see Donaldson's face everytime I hear the name "merryweather." Nonoressure lol

[Jonn]

98 oh s*** boys

[Jonn]

Hes 28 lol. So he’s basically Cleveland’s Dustin McGowan.

My favorite Gibby ejection. Noticed that JD was pissed off and testing the umpire, so runs out there, pushes his player to the side, and lets the ump have it.

 

I can't even imagine what Charlie would have done in that situation aside from be scared for his life.

[Slade]

I hate how accurate that is.

[Boxcar]

He looked pretty damn good there tbh. Very fluid delivery.

[glory]

Looked pretty good there.

[Slade]

Damn that was a pretty good Merryweather.

[Jonn]

He might not be Jack Flaherty but hey he might be something!

[BlueRocky]

Dude what the hell man. Where has Merryweather been all this time?

[bones10]

Is there anyway he can start, or is he strictly a pen arm at this point in his career?

[Jonn]

Dude what the hell man. Where has Merryweather been all this time?

 

Apparently he’s always hurt.

[KevinGregg]

Vlad jr,

King of the long single

I can't even imagine Charlie having the balls to push Donaldson out of the way, never mind say anything.

[Jays24]

Even when Vladdy does well, it pisses me off that he couldn't get a double out of it lol.

[KevinGregg]

He was in the mix for the rotation last year until he got hurt IIRC

[Orgfiller]

Another Guerrero liner that he isn't able to turn into two bases. It's kind of funny and sad that as bad as he has looked at the plate at times he's also been unlucky I guess. But if he's in better shape that has to be two bases easily.

[Boxcar]

Is there anyway he can start, or is he strictly a pen arm at this point in his career?

 

Idk, I'd give him the chance but we traded for him 2 years ago and he's barely played since, so...

[Slade]

He hasn't pitched in pretty much 3 years, if he ever goes back to being a starter probably not going to be this year.
